Val Thorens apartment prices 2026/27: how much a week costs

How much is a week in a Val Thorens apartment?

It depends above all on the week: in our agency apartments, a week at the height of the February school holidays costs about three times a week in late November or April. For each Saturday still ahead, the table shows the cheapest agency apartment still free, for the whole apartment and the full week, and how many agency apartments are still free.

The table is live: prices and counts change as apartments are booked, and clicking a Saturday shows the apartments free that week.

The table shows the cheapest agency apartment of any size. For your group's price, open the apartments page and add your dates and the number of guests: only apartments free on those dates and big enough are listed, with their prices.

Why does the price change from week to week?

Because of school holidays: in our table the dearest weeks are holiday weeks, and in 2027 they bunch up in February. France's three zones take two weeks each between 6 February and 8 March, so the weeks of 13 and 20 February each have two French zones off at once, as well as English, Belgian or Dutch pupils.

French dates run from the Saturday classes end to the Monday they resume; zone C includes Paris, zone A Lyon and zone B Lille. English dates are those of Surrey, Bristol, Ealing, Luton and Stockport, since each council sets its own, and the Dutch February dates are the ministry's advice to schools.

Our table follows these holidays. The dearest weeks, 13 and 20 February, cost about three times a week in late November or April; the New Year week costs more than twice as much, and Christmas week about one and a half times. The cheapest weeks are 28 November and 12 December, before Christmas, and every week from 27 March to the end of April, Easter included, even though the French spring holidays fall in April. The weeks of 2 and 9 January, just after the holidays, cost about a quarter more.

These comparisons date from 23 October 2026. Remember too that Les 3 Vallées are open as a linked area only from 5 December 2026 to 18 April 2027; outside those dates, Val Thorens and Orelle run on their own (21 November – 2 May).

One price for the whole apartment, Saturday to Saturday

The price in the table is for the whole apartment and the full week, Saturday to Saturday, not per person. Agency apartments are only rented that way, at that week's price: choose dates inside one of an apartment's free weeks and you book that full week.

SkiShare's own apartments are priced per night for the dates you choose, plus a cleaning fee when there is one, and every line is shown before you book. Either way, paying by card adds a 1.9% card fee, shown before you pay. Prices are in euros.

The week sets the price first, then the apartment: its size and how many guests it sleeps. How many of you actually stay doesn't change it, so every extra person sharing lowers the cost per head.

What else to budget for: lift pass and travel

The other big cost of a ski week is the lift pass: SETAM, the company that runs the Val Thorens lifts, charges an adult €330.50 to €421 for 6 days in 2026/27, depending on the area and the dates:

Under-5s ski free, with proof of their date of birth and an ID photo. SETAM sells the 6-day pass for the price of 5 days, and its days are consecutive, so a rest day midweek still counts. All the passes and periods: Val Thorens ski pass prices.

For the journey, the resort's official site puts Geneva airport 201 km away, Lyon 199 km and Chambéry 122 km, and says the fastest TGVs from Paris Gare de Lyon, sold by SNCF Connect, reach Moûtiers in about 4 hours 20 minutes. Eurostar Snow trains leave London St Pancras for Moûtiers on Saturdays from 19 December to 20 February, with a change at Lille Europe; the trains back to London run mainly on Sundays, until 28 February. Moûtiers station is 37 km from the resort, and the S63 bus climbs from there: tickets are sold by Altibus.

Fares change with the date, so price them for your week: how to get to Val Thorens. Ski hire, lessons and meals out depend on the shop, the school and your habits; ask for 2026/27 prices when you book them.

Cheap Val Thorens apartments: how to pay less for a week

The biggest saving is the week itself: in our table, a week in late November or April costs about a third of a week at the height of the February holidays. Then share the apartment and pick the right pass:

• Fill the apartment. Split the week's price by the number of people: in an apartment for six, six friends pay a sixth each and four pay a quarter, so with six each person pays a third less. Add the 1.9% card fee before dividing.
• Ski early or late. SETAM's 6-day adult Val Thorens-Orelle pass is €330.50 until 18 December, €37 less than from 19 December (€367.50). The 3 Vallées pass is €378.50 from 5 to 18 December and from 10 to 18 April, €42.50 less than in between (€421).
• Stay on Val Thorens-Orelle. From 19 December to 9 April its 6-day pass costs €53.50 less per adult than the 3 Vallées pass; from 10 to 18 April, just €11 less. You give up the rest of the 3 Vallées' 600 km of pistes.
• Families: Family Flex. From three people, with at most two adults and at least one child aged 5 to 17, everyone pays the junior price on a 6-day pass, in one payment: for two adults and two children on Val Thorens-Orelle from 19 December, 4 × €301 = €1,204 instead of €1,337.

Two weeks outside every school holiday in the table above: 12–19 December 2026 and 9–16 January 2027. Which weeks are quieter on the slopes too: when to ski in Val Thorens.

Why Saturday to Saturday, and can you arrive on another day?

Agency apartments are rented only by the full week, Saturday to Saturday; to arrive on another day, choose one of SkiShare's own apartments, priced per night for the dates you pick. According to Les 3 Vallées, most holidaymakers travel on Saturday: their site suggests a Sunday-to-Sunday week for quieter roads, airports and stations, and notes that Saturday is a day "when there are fewer skiers".

A Saturday-to-Saturday week means travelling on the busy day, but it leaves Sunday to Friday for skiing, the six days of the pass. Where to stay in the resort: where to stay in Val Thorens.
